Download or read book Yes to Sex Just Not Yet written by Sam Beckworth and published by . This book was released on 2013-06-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite all the misguided ideas about Him, God is good, relational and has your best interests at heart. Furthermore, when it comes to sex, young people may be pleasantly surprised to hear what their Creator has to say about the subject. Like a present to be opened at Christmas, God has a perfectly crafted season for you to enjoy this special gift. Let it be known that God says, "Yes to Sex!" His answer isn't "No," just "Not yet!" If you're willing to take the challenge, you can say the same. As a young adult you have a lot to deal with. I realize you already know that but perhaps it's appreciated when someone identifies with the tough world you live in. There aren't too many people these days that want to be in your shoes. Between the challenges of school and thoughts of the future, looking for a real friend, family drama and still, after all that, endeavoring to enter adulthood with some framework of character and fear of God, your life can probably get overwhelming. Let's not even touch the larger than life issues like trying to find out who you are or fitting in. I do not want to make you feel any more insecure than you might feel already or predict a grim report about your future. I just think it's important to recognize your life for what it is. You have a huge future ahead of you in God but you also face a legitimate uphill climb to reach it. Simply put, your life demands courage. With that said, it is quite possible that sexual integrity isn't necessarily a fight you will choose to take on. Christian or not, it may seem easier to live sexually active and not bother swimming against the current of sexual acceptance or even deal with the peer pressure of resisting. Your thoughts might be: "There are bigger things intimidating me right now and I'm not sure if I have the energy or vision to fight off this battle. I'll just let whatever happens happen-and pay the price later and hope for God's mercy. Maybe He can help me fix whatever problems I might create now through sexual activity later after I'm married." I don't condemn you for thinking that way sometimes. Besides, you're probably one of the many young adults who loves God and wants to do what's right. If you could snap your fingers and remain sexually inactive until you marry the right one I'm sure you would. Although it doesn't work that way, perhaps if you at least had some helpful tools and enough inspiration, you would probably give Biblical sexual purity a real shot. Well, I believe that God has a message for you to hear and my hope is that some of those helpful tools will be found in this book. Sexual integrity according to the Bible is not about perfectionism. Just as easily as Christians can get sloppy and loose in this area, the best of us, on the flip side, can get legalistic and critical. We won't do well in either extreme. God simply wants your whole heart. God loves and wants the real you, both when you're at your best, and when you're at your worst. He wants you to welcome Him in every part of your life, including that part of you concerning sex, relationships and future marriage. God sees your desire to please Him and your passion to reach for Him in this area. You wouldn't be reading this book right now if it weren't true. Again, God's will is your sexual purity; but thankfully His way is always best. His instructions are for our benefit. His heart is for our good. Therefore this God-journey is intended to bless you. May this book be fuel for your specific and adventurous journey. You are special to God. Your desire for sex and marriage is God-given. He understands you and is bringing you into a place of significance and value.

But here's the catch, it can be done! That's where I come in. I am very candid and transparent in recalling my past struggles (temptations, tests and back-sliding) and present triumphs in the area of my sexuality. It is my goal that both males and females can learn from both the good and the not so good encounters I've had.Sexual purity and sexual abstinence can be somewhat challenging issues to discuss in families, youth groups, classrooms, church and other settings. Sexploitation runs rampant in multimedia: from music videos, radio, and commercials, to everyday movies. Who can stay pure in the midst of booty-shaking, laffy-taffy, thong-songs, and lap dances? The answer: you and I. Purity is possible. Abstinence is also possible. Renewed and restored virginity is possible. This book is not for perfect people. This book is for people who are in pursuit of the truth, as it pertains to young adult sexuality. This book is for people who, regardless of their past choices, have made an informed decision to pursue God's idea of safe sex, which is 'saved' sex, in a covenant called marriage. The Best Sex of My Life is a challenge to teenagers, college students and young adult's singles to redefine sexual abstinence with finesse and flavor. Young men and young women, celebrate who you are, because you are Worth The Wait!!!

Download or read book Stand for Life written by John Ensor and published by Hendrickson Publishers. This book was released on 2022-05-03 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the 1.2 million abortions performed annually in the U.S., more than 500,000 are performed on college-aged women. They make up 44% of all abortions in the country. So it is not surprising that there is a large, thriving network of pro-life groups on college campuses. These groups serve to advocate for pro-life and educate other young people about the physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual effects that abortion has on women. While there are online guides and booklets on the topic, there are currently very few if any books that are specifically geared for use by young advocates for this cause. Now there is Stand for Life, a manual that addresses tough questions in a format that is concise and straightforward. Topics include: Defending your pro-life views in five minutes or less Understanding the sanctity of human life Simplifying the abortion debate Developing a Christian response to abortion Debate: keeping cool under fire Q&As about such thorny issues as unsafe abortions, abortion when mothers lives are at risk, my body, my choice, and more
